House and Home

Your home is your castle, and whether you buy into the needs-to-have-granite-counter-top-and-stainless-steel-appliances mantra, or subscribe to the "totally happy when simply warm and dry" philosophy, Frugal Fixer can help. We'll show you ways to make your home a better place to live, with tips from pros who understand that owning property shouldn't mean being owned by it.There is an old adage that says "The only thing more expensive than hiring a professional is hiring an amateur." There are lots of home repair and maintenance items that are best left to professionals, but there are also a lot of tasks that a DIY-minded home owner can do for his or herself. No one enters the world knowing how to install a P-trap or wire a GFI circuit - these are skills that have to be learned, but just about anyone can learn them. Painting, drywall repair, kitchen cabinet re-facing, changing light fixtures; all of these things are well within the skill-set of most home owners, and the money that can saved is substantial. We'll share tips from the pros along with handy and innovative ways to get that granite-and-stainless look without the granite-and-stainless mortgage.
